a frigh tful reality. - The popular art
instructor ' n ow has a real Chinese
dragon , far more viscious in appearance and ac t ions than either the lion
or the wolves.
The rare reptile arrived at the Keller home on Turkey Hill on Tuesd ay
morning and remain a stranger to
everyone in the locality, and according to the owner it will continue to
remain a stranger because the local
wild animal hobbyist openly admits
that he prefers lions.
Resembles Small Dinosauer
Mr. Keller received the ugly, dinosauer-like animal from Mr. A. W.
King, of Brownsviile, Texas. A
young animal about thirty wears of
age , it measure s six fee t in leng th and
stands abou t two fee t fro m the
ground . When fully grown it will be
about seventeen feet long. It is a
grey-green in color and has a white,
stripe about three inches wide running over its hind legs and around the

mouth is large and when open shows

the jaw.
Barbed points form a saw-like protection, to the reptile's back , running
from the back of the head to the tail.
The feet are particularly dangerouslooking, having sha rp claws almos t
six inches in length.
Mr. Keller said the animal really
cann ot be described , ei ther on paper
or by word of mouth. It's only when
you meet the dragpn face to face and
feel , the power of its piercing amber
eyes and hear the characteristic and
weird hissing which it makes when
disturbed by civilization that you
realize you are becoming acquainted
with one of the rarest and meanestlooking wild animal s ever seen.
Will Not Eat
The dragon absolutely refuses to
eat when in captivity. It prefers to
s t arve to death, rather than remain
under the power of a human being.
A letter explaining the dragon instructs Mr. Keller to cram celery and
clover down the animal 's throa t once ,
every two weeks and Mr. Keller humorously stated that he will go the
limit in time before attempting the
act.
.The story, of how the local ar t
teacher got the Chinese dragon dates
back to the time when the ColeBeatty Circus was playing in Williamsport. At that time Mr. Keller, in
talking to Clyde Beatty, the animal
train er, he learned of Mr. A. W.
King, a Texas man interested in wild
animals , and wrote to him concerning
many curious animals..
Will Put On Exhibition
The result of his writing acquaintance with Mr. King took the form of
a Chinese dragon, originally from
Indo-China, now living in the lion
cage at Mr. Keller 's home. Mr. Keller expec t s t o have the n ew curiosi ty
transferred to a cage along the Berwick highway in a day or two. There,
those interested in thrills which send
chills up and down the spine may see,

College Brief s

Harvard Offers New Masters
President Conant, Harvard administrator, recently announced that a
number of scholarships, with maximum stipends of $1000 each, would
be given this Spring to college
graduates who enter next Fall on the
course of study for the new degree
of Master of Arts in Teaching. The
new course is designed to offer a com>
bination of the old ones, which gave
teachers a choice of teaching methods
or subject matter but which, in his
opinion, left the teacher inadequately equipped to be a teacher of the
best type.
Swarthmore Gets 4000 Music R ecords
Heirs of the late Senator Bronson
M. Cutting have presented his collection of 4000 phonograph records to
Swarthmore College. The collection
in cludes complete works of Bach,
Handel, Beethoven, and Wagner, and
both grand and comic ^opera. There
are also records of Verdi's music, negro music, all types of church music,
and chamber music.

NINE RECORDS SHATTERED AS HUSKIES
SWEEP ALL SCHEDULED DUAL MEETS
New Records Hun g Up In Dashes
Hurdle Event s, Broad Jump
And Mile Relay
Husky' trackm en made the season
just completed the best in the history
of the school not only by turning in a
clean slate in dual competition but
toy breaking nine records, one of
r
which has stood since 1912.
Blass Out st anding
New records were rung up in the
100 yard dash , the 220, the 440, the
220 yard low hurdles, the 120 yard
high hurdles, the 100 yard high hurdles, the shot put, the running broad
jump, and the mile relay. Captain
Blass, who has been handicapped durin g the final three meet s, was himself
responsible for four of the records.
The Aristes youth lowered Line's record in the 120 yard low hurdles from
18.2 seconds to 17.2 seconds. In the
100 yard high hurdles he tuined in a
time of 14.6 seconds to clip eightt enths of a second f rom his own
record time of 15.4 seconds, established in •1934.
The 1936 captain 's b est record this
year was in the shot put event
against Shippensburg, when he heaved the 16-pound sphere a distance of
44 feet, 112 inches. The old record
of 39 feet, 111 inches was set up by
Rudowski in 1932. The other record
broken by Blass this season was in
the running broad jump. His leap
of 21 feet 10 inches bettered a record
of 21 feet IS inches which he himself made last year.
New Dash Records
All the other new records this season were established by freshmen, led
by Harry Van Gordon, of Kingst on,
who lowered the time in the 100 and
220 yard dashes and in the 220 yard
low hurdles. He brought the record
for the century dash down to 9.9
seconds in one of the fastest races
ever seen around Bloomsburg, while
his record-setting time in the 220
yard dash was 22.1 seconds, clipping
almost a second from Dolison 's time
in 1912. The Kingston flash also
lowered the record for the 220 yard
low hurdles. He ran the event in
25.7 seconds, contrasted with the
former record of 28.2 seconds.
One of the strong spots on the
whole track and field team this year

Eleven Earn Varsit y
Recognition In Track

NEW PL AN FOR INTR AMUR AL Six Others Given Junior Varsity
Letters At Banquet Last
SPORTS BEING CONSIDERED
Saturday Night
Extensive plans for a new system
in intramural sports have been drawn
up for next year and await approval,
Coach George Buchheit announced
yesterday.
The intramural program grew out
of a rapidly increasing interest in
inter-class and inter-group sports on
the campus. It began two years
ago with the formation of inter-class
t rack and bask etball leagu es by th e
men of the College, under the direction of Coach Buchheit.
In developing the new program
those in charge are striving to provide intramural sports for every student in the College. The girls have
already excited a great amount of
interest in sports through a program
outlined by Miss Lucy McCammon.
Sam Cohen, of Plymouth, had
charge of the men 's intramural program during the past year and did
much work towards the establishment of a more permanent and regular schedule. He organized tennis
tournaments, foul-throwing contests,
ping-pong tournaments, basketball
tournaments, and handball contests.

Eleven men earned varsity awards

in t rack this season , Coach George

Buchheit announced last week. Six
others recei v ed thei r jun ior var sity
awards.
Those getting varsity letters include Lamar Blass, Samuel Cohen,
Thomas Davison, Leon Dixon, Michael Gonshor, Vance Laubach, Edward Mulhern, Robert Savage, Frank
Van Devender, Harry Van Gordon,
and Stanley Zelesky.
Jayvee awards were given to the
following, some of whom will have
an opportunity to earn their varsity
letters next year: Gerald Burke,
¦Chester Harwood, Robert Hopfer,
Mervin Mericle, Joseph Ollock (Mgr.elect), and Robert Parker.

COMPARES WITH DECATHLON

Gilbert Kline, attempted to compare the record set up by Captain Lamar Blasa, with the decathlon record
in the United States for this year.
While he was unable to make an
accurate comparison he claims that
Blass's record approaches the decathlon record rather cloBely.

RE-ELE CTED CAPTAIN

LAMAR BLASS
Trackmen were almost unanimous in their selection of Lamar
Blass, high-scoring Aristes athlet e, to head the track and field
men for t he second successive
year. The honor, given to Blass
last Saturday and announced during the athletic banquet, is a
rare one at Bloomsburg.
With the loss of only one varsity performer, that being Sam
Cohen, of Plymouth, the 1937
squad should continue their winning streak in dual competition,
which they piled up agafnst all
their opponents this season.

The Susquehanna Relays, which
was schodulod to be held at Susquehanna University last week, was
postponed because of a conflict with
the annual Middle Atlantic College
track and field meet, which was
scheduled for the samo day.

Both Take 13 Firsts As Team
Registers Total 350 1/2
Points
Two Bloomsburg runners, Captain
Lamar Blass and Harry Van Gordon,
rang up records for themselves this
season when they each scored a total
of 74 points in four dual meets and
the state meet. This represents
slightly less than 15 points for each
meet as an average. The entire
Husky team piled up a grand total
of 350i counters for the best track
and field record in the history of th e
sport at Bloomsburg.
Freshmen Star
Following in succession the fa st
pace set by the two leaders are two
fre shman stars, Zaleski with. 444
points and VanDevender with 431
points. Davison was next in scoring with 20 counters; Laubach sixth
with 16; and Mulhern seventh with "
a 142 total. Others and the points
they; earned include Gonshor, with
14; Dixon, with 13; Parker , with 112;
Burke and Cohen, each with 10; Noland , with 3; and Hopfer and Harwood, each with l

Blass Has 13 Firsts
Captain Blass also rang up a new
record in point-scoring for two consecutive dual meets, scoring 24
poin ts against both Lock Haven and
Shippensburg for a total of 48
points. Were it not for an ankle injury, from which he has still not
entirely recovered, the Aristes athlet e probably would have increa sed
his grand total by'at least 15 or 20
points. He had thirteen firsts, two
seconds, three thirds, and a fourth ,
in the five meets on schedule.
VanGordon received his poin t s in
mu ch the same manner, so fa r as
placing is concerned. The Kingston
frosh also took thirteen firsts, but his
other points came from two thirds,
a fou rth , and a fifth.

Climbs From Bottom
To Third On Ladder
Minnie Boudman Has Best Record As Girls End Tennis
Tourney
'Starting down in twenty-eighth
position on the tennis ladder, a contest among girls of the College,
Minnie Boudman gradually worked
her way up, rung by rung, to finish
in third position. This marks the
greatest advancement by ifar of anyone on the ladder. The contest
ended May 11 with the last matches
of the day.
The competition was worked out in
such a manner as to give the earlysigners a decided advantage because
their names were placed in the order
in which they signed. A player was
permitted to challenge any other
player two rungs above her. If she
won her name was moved up to replace the name of the girl she defeated.
The order of finishing for the first
six and the position they occupied
when the contest started follow :
first , Sara Dersham, who moved up
from fifth place; second, Betty Chalfont , who moved down from first}

Going into the fifth match in their

Wednesday the plucky 1936 tennis
team of Coach John Koch turned on
the heat to pull up to a threatening
posi t ion, only to be nosed out in the
match by a close 5-4 score.
The loss was only the second this
season, a record which places the local courtmen well up on top so far
as teachers college competition is
concerned.
The count was tied at four all after
Bloomsburg swept the last two singles
matches and the first two doubles
matches. Cohen and Zalonis, playing
the deciding doubles match, look ed
like heroes for the Bloomsburg cause
for a while, when they easily won

W hile the local team had little
trouble running up a big score
against the Selinsgrove neighbors on
the down-river diamond, Coach Nelson looks for closer competition in tomorrow 's game, the later scores
turned in by the Susquehanna team
showing they have been gathering
strength during the season.
Tomorrow 's game will be the last
for several Bloomsburg men, several
of them leaving the College by way
of graduation. Among those who
will leave are Litwhiler, M oleski , and
R ompalo , all veterans.

Coach Nelson's sluggers proved entirely too powerful for
their Indiana opponents on Wednesday afternoon and turned in
a heavy 15-8 win for their ninth victory in a dozen , starts this
season. The Indians set out to match slugging power with the
Hu skies in the first fe w innings, and it looked as though the
large crowd that turned out for the tilt was going to see a close
battle. However , the invaders were unable te keep pace with
the local nine, and from the fifth inning on it was just a matter of
rolling ud a score.

REGIST ER A DECISIVE 19-8
WIN OVER SHIPPENSBURG FOE
Coach Nelson 's Husky nine didn't
like that loss they suffered at Shippensburg on Saturday, April 18. The
defeat meant the snapping of a long
winning streak stretching over two
seasons and reaching a t ot al of
twenty games. So with that game in
mind and high ambitions the 1936
sluggers entertained Shippensburg
on the local diamond last Saturday
afternoon and sent them home with a
stinging 19-8 trouncing.

Whitey Moleski was on the mound
for the first six innings and left the
game wth his team on top by 19-3.
Al Finder then took up the pitching
duties and was touched for five runs
in the last three innings. Altogether
Bloomsburg hammered out nineteen
hits, including two homers and three
triples. Danny Litwhiler pounded out

COLLEGE PAPER RATED 715
POINTS IN 1936 CONTEST

That the Maroon and Gold has
gradually shown progress from time
to time during the past few years is
shown in the comparative rating
scales for the volume this year and
those of two recent years. The total
ratings indicate a jump from a third
class paper with a "fair " standing to
a first class paper with an "excellent" standing.
Scores 715 Points
In a contest sponsored by the
Associated Collegiate Press this year
the Bloomsburg paper, rat ed with 295
• other college and university papers,
received a t ot al of 715 poin t s out of
a possible 1000 and was accordingly
given a first class honor rating,
which is marked "ex cellen t" on the
score sheet. Copies of another recent
volu me of the M aroon and Gold ,
scored af t er the con t est was over,
received 453 poin t s, which was below
the honor ra tings and list ed as four th
i class. Another volume, just before
the one ra t ed fo u r th class, received
oven, less poin ts than 453, indicating
that the paper is gradually gaining
better form.
The score sheet recently received
from the Associated Collegiate Press
includes, in addition to summary
scores and cri t icisms, a good manual
of college journalism.
News Coverage Excellent
In general the news writing and
editing were considered very good,
the chief criticisms being against the
"over-writing" of feature material
and the over-developing of certain
news stories. The news coverage was
rated as ex cellen t, though the judges
stressed the importance of adding
more news fro m the alum ni of the
school.
Headlines counted against the paper more than any other feature. The
headlines of th e M aroon an d Gold ar e
too general and in some cases weak,
except on the sports page. Judges
advised th at the heads be m ade m ore
sp ecific , playing up real news.
The College paper did well on the
departmental pages, such as the editorial page and the sports page. The
chief criticism for the editorial page
concerned the use of captions or labels
where stronger headlines are preferred . The sports section was rated
"excellent" for the second time this
year and earned almost a perfect
.score in the rating.
rnnung renew
A perfect score of 20 points was
made for the printing work. The
Associated Collegiate Press, in its
manual, stresses the importance to

when scoring for printing.
